I remember going to see Wreck-It Ralph with my mom and daughter when it was first in theaters, and in light of the release of […]

    I have very fond memories of Woody Woodpecker, and on this date in 1940, this character first appeared in the animation short Knock Knock.  Mel Blanc (I love him!) was the original voice of this woodpecker.  Woody made his television début in 1957, and he has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
